We'll never know the truth unless a Mothershop lands on the whitehouse lawn and an alien steps out wanting to talk to the President. UFOs are used as cover for black projects, doesn't mean all UFO cases are fabricated by the government, but a lot are.

Giant squid are huge, the size of a school bus. They're extinct or nearly so, right? Impossible to film. Never before seen in their natural habitat? Turns out, there are tens of millions of giant squid in the oceans, plenty enough to support the current Sperm Whale population. Only a few years ago (literally, like 2024) we thought them near extinction, and had never filmed a live one except under extremely unusual accidental conditions or the few washed up on beaches or caught stuck to the mouth of a whale mid-meal. Now we can film them any time we want. The secret? Changing the light used to film the deep. This is an analogous situation to sasquatch, just in case you were wondering why I'm talking about giant squid.

The threats against whistleblowers and even the outbreak of missing and assumed deceased scientists is grist for the mill about how national security will continue to be used to cover up black box programs and funds, we can only hope the gold bars at Ft Knox haven't flown the coop already. Family of potential whistle blowers are now threatened and false charges used to wreck careers so the stories about BF researchers having home invasions and computers snatched in the past is totally believable. Mr. Gold's comments on the paranormal are as normal as remote viewing now.

7’6” 1000 lbs What would something 8’6” tall weigh or could lift?

Just look at our closest extinct cousin. Shorter. Way more robust. Now imagine something still bipedal but even larger and more robust. Would love to know more about Denisovans. They are truly a species that is in the right place at the right time to cross the land bridge before Homo Sapiens. Or it’s not closely related to us at all. It’s coming out of left field. Anyhow I thought Darden could put some perspective into supposed Sasquatch strength.

In the PGF/McClarin comparison? Its not Pattys height that shocks me. Its her bulk. A gorilla is shorter than us but is twice our weight. Patty and Jim are similar heights albeit Patty has a hunched shuffle gait. So she is most assuredly taller than Jim. But Jim looks like a stick figure by comparison. His waist is just one of her thighs. There is only so much SFX can do with a suit. Anyhow legend says Darden picked up 1200 lbs and carried it one mile. Imagine what a large male Sasquatch could do.

He was considerably bigger than even Andre the Giant. It really does make you wonder what something 8+ft. could weigh and how strong they would be. I remember reading a BFRO report by an elk hunter a few years ago that I haven't been able to find again, but I can recall the main parts. We would just have to assume he was telling a true account. The elk hunter used an ATV and went along a path to get to his spot. At one point he had to cross a small creek. One morning he said he found a big log blocking his path right at the creek. He was able to get around the log and continue on. However, the next morning he found two more logs in place, in addition to the first one. He did some looking around and said the logs did not come from right around that small area. I think he said the trees around there were not the same type as the logs. Here is the interesting part. He said the logs were too big and heavy for one person to have dragged it there. And were far too heavy for two people to have picked it up and carried it there. To assume the story was true, it makes you wonder just what put those logs there, and how they got them there. He didn't mention anything about machinery, but I think it was a bit of a remote area, and apparently there was no sign of any machinery having been there. I don't think there were any signs of anything having been there except for his ATV. I'm not certain but I don't think it was private land.

I suggest that the plural of "bigfoot" is "bigfoot."

Hyperbole aside, 2012 is the date that the discovery bore fruit... The point stands, at some point, we'll figure out how to observe these animals in their native habitat, then they'll revert to just another curious creature in the woods like bear or wolves.

CallyCat I'm very sorry to learn about your medical condition and I pray for your healing. You said, "Many years ago, I went to Selma, Alabama to investigate a giant skeleton on display in a restaurant that was supposedly Cheif Tuscaloosa. For those who aren't familiar, Cheif Tuscaloosa was documented by the Spanish to be over 8 feet tall. I suspected that this skeleton wasn't human or some historic Indian Chief, so I went on down to Selma to check it out. The owner of the restaurant provided the documentation from the US government that the skeleton was over 7 feet tall. They took that skeleton for further study, but what they returned was obviously a human skeleton typical of what you would find in an anatomy class in school. I measured the skeleton and it was only slightly taller than me. These medical school skeletons can sometimes be a conglomeration of bones from different people. I took a toe bone for DNA analysis but after talking to a well-known geneticist we decided it wasn't worth the effort to do DNA testing based on what I found." I have read your reply several times and your comments are interesting but some inferences are confusing or need more definition. You mention that the Indian chief's skeleton was over 8' tall as documented by the Spanish. Do you think it wasn't human. If it wasn't human then do you believe it was a bigfoot skeleton or what do you believe? Then later the skeleton was replaced by a shorter human size skeleton. Can you clear this summary up and get well in the name of God.

I played high school football with a Samoan guy who weighed 285 lbs as a freshman and graduated at some 475 lbs. He was @ 6' tall. He was huge and could actually run quite fast. The California high school sports regulatory body banned him from wrestling in his senior year.

I should have been more specific, stand alone forums are dying out. Reddit kind of smashes all the crazies, niche interests and paranormal stuff all into one thing and so Reddit scrolling can pull good numbers across topics. I agree 100% on the woke stuff, I tried to interact on there a few times in the past but left with an icky feeling each time.

I hate reddit and do not go there. It is toxic. If you aren't a part of the group think, they will crucify you at the altar of wokeness. However, they have enough sheeple to fill the barn.

This type of behavior, common and rampant throughout society in every venue, doesn't happen at Reddit? I'm asking sincerely because I don't know. I don't utilize that website.

Yes it’s forums, but it covers every subject under the sun. I am not sure how to replicate that here. We don’t have a feed with revolving posts. Posts that have nothing to do with each other? Norcal where are you going with this? Changes to the forum are the responsibility of the steering committee. If you have ideas to make this forum better? You are more than welcome to run it past them. Incorrigible is the SC chair. Shoot him a PM.

Reddit is a cesspool.

You must be an old guy.

I think we should be comparing apples to apples. The first Bigfoot forum I ever joined was the BFRO “blue room”. I was basically ran out of there for my pro kill stance, but whatever. It’s not the point. The point is that several years ago the BFRO shut down the blue room and opened up a Facebook page. They have 111 k members. Good for them. The hound hunting forum I belonged to? Gone. The jet boat forum called mean chicken…..gone. Along with the massive repository of knowledge. How does a very specific old school PHPBB board compete with Reddit or FB or the next great social platform? Good question.

Reddit Bigfoot has grown from 100K follows 2 years ago to 250K followers today. That isn't insignificant. Forums are as popular as ever, but something is askew with the recipe on this specific site. How many people actually post here in a month?
